Pakistan asks for information

ISLAMABAD/NEW DELHI, Aug 18: A day after Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said terror groups based in Pakistani territory were plotting attacks against India, Pakistan on Tuesday said it couldn’t take such remarks “lightly” and asked New Delhi to share information on such threats. “If the (Indian) Prime Minister says something like this, we can’t take it lightly,” Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi told reporters on the sidelines of an official function in Islamabad.

“If there is such information with (India), share it with the Government of Pakistan so that we can pre-empt such an act,” he said. “We have conveyed this to them and let’s see what is their response,” he added.
